Gun Free Zone

I bumped into this video in Twitter:

The guy is taking or pretending to take a dump in the garbage can of the NY Subway. I did a bit more research and apparently this is some sort of art thing from a guy named Zeeshan Ali who says he is half Filipino and half Pakistani living in the Big Apple.

I also found this video in YouTube:

OK, I “understand” that you want to be trendy and viral and the hog’s tits in the art community (Or what passes for it in that location.) But when you directly affect the income of a hard worker for cheap images, you deserve a nice re-injection of what you have expelled via both holes.

I doubt that even the jaded New Yorkers will stop to buy a hot dog from a cart that has a guy taking a shit next to it.

One last thing: YouTube thinks our shooting videos are disgusting and gun people channels disappear because “Guns are bad. ‘Mkay?” But Faux Artist exposing himself and defecating in public? No problem.

After I am done with the Ham Radio license study (going slower than I thought. Life and crap) I think I want to try some basic lock picking, There is this guy in YouTube, The LockpickingLawyer  who has a hundreds of videos picking all kinds of locks and showing their weakness. He is also a gun guy so gun locks are in his menu (not a big fan of the stuff out there). Lock picking requires finesse and a bit of patience to get good at it which happens to be a good thing because average criminal is not fine or patient. I say this because the ease which this guy open locks and points out the manufacturing sales will make you bobytrap your doors in order to go to sleep.

There are inexpensive pick sets with training locks in Amazon and I think I may get me one for my birthday.

And one thing I will do is NOT tell anybody I know how to pick locks. You know there will be one asshole who will try to pin some crap they did on you.

Stole it from a Facebook friend who lives in a city in the Midwest. It is at a Aldi store.

Right after Trayvon Martin ceased all criminal activities, he was immortalized by a younger picture of him wearing a hoodie making him look almost angelical. The picture was used and abused by all who could get their mittens on it for their cause.

Wearing a hoodie became  (or tried to become) a sign of support for the TV cause also known as Hate The Stand Your Ground Law and any rejection to it wa labeled racist. I know I was called for my post about it by some when I pointed out that it was the way you wear it that makes you suspicious, not the fact itself yu are wearing it.

Unfortunately for the Political Left, the hoodie finally has come to represent the garb of the criminal…

And their violent political offspring

I am sure the store did not come to its decision lightly, but they are forced to mitigate somewhat future lawsuits the next time they are robbed by armed thugs wearing hoodies to cover their faces for the cameras.

From Vice:

You Can Definitely Skip Dave Chappelle’s New Netflix Special ‘Sticks & Stones’
The comedian doubles down on misogyny and transphobia in both the special and the hidden bonus scene that follows.

So it’s super not-woke.  Count me in, that sounds great.

Dave Chappelle made a return to Netflix Monday with a new stand-up special, Sticks & Stones. Fans quickly realized that, if you watch until the very end, the special has a secret epilogue called “The Punchline,” where Chappelle answers questions from audience members who went to his separate Dave Chappelle on Broadway stand-up show last July. The special takes the comic’s anti-wokeness schtick to a new level, and the whole thing is repetitive and exhausting enough that it’s a slog to even make it to the Q&A.

Alright, I can’t wait to see it now.

Chapelle’s controversial 2017 Netflix specials, like The Age of Spin: Dave Chappelle Live at the Hollywood Palladium and Equanimity and the Bird Revelation, honed his voice as a comedian wary of progressive criticism.

Dave Chappelle wants none of Vice’s comedy destroying bullshit and that is driving them mad.  Chappelle is not letting them have the power over him that they want to have.

Chappelle also returned to his now-infamous obsession with making fun of trans people, saying, “[trans people] hate my fucking guts and I don’t blame them. […] I can’t stop writing jokes about these niggas.” This time, those jokes included asking the audience how funny it would be if he was actually a Chinese person stuck inside a Black man’s body, which (you guessed it) also included a racist impression of a Chinese person.

You can sense the triggering of the Vice writers like a disturbance in the force.

He also found time to defend fellow controversial comedians Kevin Hart and Louis C.K., painting them as victims of an overzealous callout culture.

Callout culture against comedians is pure Stalinist bullshit.

He says that a white woman left one of his practice sets for the special at The Punchline comedy club in San Francisco, telling him, “I’m sorry, I was raped.” Chappelle says he replied saying, “It’s not your fault you were raped. But it’s not my fault either. Ta-ta, bitch,” to which the audience laughs raucously, as though that were a real punchline.

It is.  That woman has no right to use her traumatic experience to shut down Chappelle’s standup routine and ruin the night for everyone else who paid good money to see Dave Chappelle.  Chappelle didn’t let this woman’s feelings override his act.

These people only have power over you if you let them have power over you, and Chappelle has made it clear that he won’t let them have power over him.

Chappelle has always been a daredevil comedian willing to take a controversial stance or downplay a serious controversy for laughs, including his early-2000s skits about R. Kelly’s court trials on Chappelle’s Show. But now he chooses to blatantly ignore the historic criticism against his style of comedy and new loud-and-clear criticism from the trans community. His approach comes off like a defiant rejection of change at any cost. As he keeps going down this path, drawing attention to the worst aspects of his important career, the biggest cost will be tarnishing his own legacy.

His legacy will be that he is probably the best stand up comedian of his generation.  He will rank up there with the likes of Richard Prior and (young) George Carlin.  Comedians who let themselves be browbeaten into woke blandness will be quickly forgotten.

Contrast that with this other article from Vice.

Comedians Explain Why Hannah Gadsby’s ‘Nanette’ Is So Groundbreaking

Pro-tip, if someone has to explain comedy, it wasn’t funny.

The special, if you haven’t seen it, starts out like most others. Gadsby delves into her personal life, and packs vulnerable material about coming out and being a lesbian with plenty of jokes, in order to do what all comics aim to do—lighten the mood. However, as her performance continues it gets more blunt. She comments on the nature of self-deprecating humor, stating that self-deprecation from someone who already exists in the margins is not humility, “It’s humiliation.”

Comedians don’t “lighten the mood” they make you laugh.  If she doesn’t make you laugh, she failed at comedy.

Gadsby proclaims multiple times that she feels she has to quit standup. In her eyes, things like abuse and discrimination should not be turned into jokes. She brilliantly points out how standup has been guilty of helping problematic men. During the Monica Lewinsky scandal, Lewinsky was turned into a punchline, and her life was ruined. Gadsby asks comedians to think about their involvement in situations like this.

Gadsby wants to police comedy because she didn’t find other comedians’ jokes funny.  That tells you all you need to know about her level of woke.

Every comedian that they interviewed about Nanette looks exactly like what you would expect a woke, Progressive scold to look like.

So what was so groundbreaking about Nanette?

“NANETTE” AND WHY A NEW WAVE OF COMEDIANS DON’T WANT TO BE FUNNY

Yep, they are comedians who are not funny.

Vice is berating Dave Chappelle for being gut-bustingly funny with jokes Vice doesn’t approve of and elevates a comedian who doesn’t want to be funny and wants other comedians to not be funny either.

I am reminded of a quote by Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini:

Allah did not create man so that he could have fun. The aim of creation was for mankind to be put to the test through hardship and prayer. An Islamic regime must be serious in every field. There are no jokes in Islam. There is no humor in Islam. There is no fun in Islam. There can be no fun and joy in whatever is serious.

This is why Progressives love Islamists, they have the same fundamental beliefs.

The aim of life is for humankind to be put to the test through identifying oppression. A Progressive regime must be serious in every field. There are no jokes in Progressivism. There is no humor in Progressivism. There is no fun in Progressivism. There can be no fun and joy in whatever is serious.

Chapelle’s new set will be hilarious and he will make a whopping shit-load of money from it.  He will be remembered as a legend of comedy.

Vice doesn’t want you to watch him or laugh at his jokes because they offend the writers of Vice.

And then there is the truth.

From the New York Times:

Desegregation Plan: Eliminate All Gifted Programs in New York
A group appointed by Mayor Bill de Blasio proposed seismic changes to the nation’s largest school system.

Excuse me?  What?

Is that sky-high, Sandinista-loving, communist fuck going to get rid of gifted programs in NYC?

For years, New York City has essentially maintained two parallel public school systems.

A group of selective schools and programs geared to students labeled gifted and talented is filled mostly with white and Asian children. The rest of the system is open to all students and is predominantly black and Hispanic.

Now, a high-level panel appointed by Mayor Bill de Blasio is recommending that the city do away with most of these programs in an effort to desegregate the system, which has 1.1 million students and is by far the largest in the country.

Is there any evidence that the kids in the G&T program are there because of racial bias or is this just the result of academic test scores?

Mr. de Blasio, who has staked his mayoralty on reducing inequality, has the power to adopt some or all of the proposals without input from the State Legislature or City Council. If he does, the decision would fundamentally reshape the segregated school system and reverberate in school districts across the country.

Again, is this segregation based on race or just some kids performing better?

Segregation based on performance isn’t racist.

Also, holding smart kids back out of fairness is torture.  I know.

He risks alienating tens of thousands of mostly white and Asian families who rely on the shadow system of gifted programs and selective schools; if a substantial number of those families leave the system, it would be next to impossible to achieve integration.

Of course it will, it will drive the smart kids of wealthy parents to send their kids to private schools, or move out of NYC altogether.

The proposals, contained in a report to be released on Tuesday, may also face opposition from some middle-class black and Hispanic families that have called for more gifted programs in mostly minority neighborhoods as a way to offer students of color more access to high-quality schools.

More G&T for black and Hispanic kids seems like the smarter plan.  But that is less fair to this socialist fuckwit.

Here we find ourself in a situation in which some radical Leftist read a piece of dystopian science fiction literature as a how-to manual instead of a warning.

This time it is Harrison Bergeron from Kurt Vonnegut’s Welcome to the Monkey House.

Mayor de Blasio has decided to put Diana Moon Glampers in charge of the NYC school system.

Sure the NYC public schools may achieve the lofty goal of perfect racial equality, but it will be at the expense of mediocrity and crushing the souls of smart kids from families that can’t afford private schools, and making sure the NYC public school system fails to produce future doctors, scientists, business leaders, or other high achieving, highly educated professionals.

But that really is the goal of communism isn’t it.  To grind humanity into a lowest-common-denominator muck, subservient and obsequious to a self-selected elite bureaucracy.

He’s going to start by doing this to the children.

OK, folks, here’s a somewhat more in-depth commentary on Drejka’s conviction last night:

Last night “handicap parking spot shooter” Michael Drejka was found guilty of manslaughter, as charged, for the shooting death of Markeis McGlockton. The verdict was returned quickly last night, after the jury had deliberated only a few hours.

ANALYSIS: Michael Drejka Guilty of Manslaughter

I got nothing to say but to go read and learn.
